Fat Man
2006-08-16 11:02:36 · answer #1 · answered by October 7 · 0⤊ 1⤋
The first nuclear weapon used was called 'Little Boy'. It was dropped over Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. Approximately 70,000 people were immediately killed by the blast, and many, many more died later from the radiation exposure.
The second weapon used was called 'Fat Man'. It was dropped over Nagasaki on August 9, 1945. Though the bomb had a yield approximately 50% greater than its predecessor, it was only immediately reponsible for the death of 40,000 civilians.
Hope that helps.

If you mean bomb, the Allies/U.S. named it "Big Boy" (I think that was the code name of the second atomic bomb); it was detonated over the Japanese city of Nagaski in August, 1945.
